WHAT OLMEKAR HCT IS
USED FOR
OLMEKAR HCT is used to treat
high blood pressure which is
sometimes called hypertension.
Everyone has blood pressure. This
pressure helps push blood all around
your body. Your blood pressure
changes at different times of the day,
depending on how busy or worried
you are. You have hypertension
(high blood pressure) when your
blood pressure stays higher than is
needed, even when you are calm and
relaxed.
There are usually no symptoms of
hypertension. The only way of
knowing that you have hypertension
is to have your blood pressure
checked on a regular basis. If high
blood pressure is not treated it can
lead to serious health problems,
including stroke, heart disease and
kidney failure.
_HOW OLMEKAR HCT WORKS _
OLMEKAR HCT contains
olmesartan medoxomil, which
belongs to a group of medicines
known as angiotensin-II receptor
antagonists. Angiotensin-II is a
substance produced in the body
which causes blood vessels to
tighten. OLMEKAR HCT blocks
the action of angiotensin-II and
therefore relaxes your blood vessels.
This helps lower your blood
pressure.
OLMEKAR HCT also contains
amlodipine besilate, a calcium
channel blocker. This reduces the
movement of calcium into the cells
of the heart and blood vessels. This
also helps to lower blood pressure as
it relaxes the blood vessels and
increases the supply of blood and
oxygen to the heart.
OLMEKAR HCT also contains
hydrochlorothi
